New project CB750F1

[Loki]

It's not that hard to fit the wiring in the headlight bucket. Take your time, straighten out the wadded up wires, pair up those that are to be connected (before actually connecting anything), and start to organize the wire pairs around the outer perimeter of the bucket. You need to leave room for the deep connector on the back of the headlight. This approach works much better than just cramming everything into the middle of the bucket and then wondering why the headlight won't fit. I have actually added a couple of relays in the headlight bucket and still have plenty of room.

Yes that was something I had considered but wasn’t sure if it would fit into the bowl and still leave air space so heat from the headlight wouldn’t cause any issues.

Are you looking for front chrome engine crash bars?

I was but I’ve since sourced a set of Chinese ones. If I’d had them before I sent off my chrome I think I would have sent them as well as some of the chrome is a bit flaky already.

Started prepping the tank for the liner so will give a run down once it's done.

Are the Chinese ones specifically for the F1 ?
I bought a set and they will fit the F1 and then again they won't.
They foul on the standard exhaust system, but fit perfectly with a pattern 4 into 1 fitted.

I went for a Chineseset at a bargain price only downside is the chrome is crap but they’ll do for now I’ll be getting some more chroming done down the line so will probably chuck them in at the same time.

ill need to look up the advert on eBay and see what it says regarding fitments went straight on to mine with my home brewed 4 into 1. I never had standard pipes on mine it came with a crumbling 4/1 which was only good for a pattern for the front pipes the rest was toast.
